PROGRAM JUSTIFICATION/EVALUATION
FOURTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT DRUG TASK FORCE
1991
In February 1991, the Fourth Judicial District Drug Task Force
(Fourth DTF) was formed. The membership included the Washington
County Sheriff, Fourth Judicial Prosecutor, University of Arkansas
Police, and the municipal police departments of Fayetteville,
Springdale, Johnson, Farmington, Lincoln, Prairie Grove, West Fork,
and Greenland. The unit consisted of seven sworn officers, a
secretary, and a fiscal officer.
During 1991, the combined unit of the Fourth DTF opened 206 cases.
These cases resulted in the arrest of 130 individuals with 129
convictions and a combined total of 279 years of prison time.
1992
In February of 1992 the 4th DTF continued operations but with a
reduced investigative staff. The budget cuts for the grant period
forced the reduction of one officer. During the year an additional
$10,000 was added to the grant to enhance the confidential funds
available to purchase evidence. The City of Johnson dropped out of
the control group, which left it a ten -member organization.
The Fourth Judicial DTF opened 177 cases and made 155 arrests.
These cases resulted in 66 convictions with a combined total of
103.5 years of prison time, 121.5 years in suspended sentences and
91 years deferred prison time.
Overall in 1992, the Fourth DTF seized directly or assisted in
seizing approximately 123 pounds of marijuana, 12 ounces of
cocaine, 8.5 ounces of methamphetamine and 14.6 grams of crack
cocaine. Also during 1992, 654 marijuana plants were destroyed.
1993
During this grant period the Task Force worked several major cases
which resulted in the disruption of inter -state narcotics
trafficking organizations. Three separate investigations were
conducted which involved several suspects who were trafficking in
large quantities of methamphetamine. One of the cases involved a
clandestine methamphetamine lab.
The Task Force investigated a major crack/cocaine distribution
organization. Three separate out-of-state sources and one southern
Arkansas source were identified. Five separate "crack house"
locations were also identified. Approximately 23 suspects were
arrested on various crack/cocaine charges. The quantity and
DLEP FY '00

PROGRAM JUSTIFICATION/EVALUATION
availability of crack/cocaine in the Fayetteville area had been on
the rise in our jurisdiction for the past several months. These
violators were prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law
beginning with bonds $100,000 each being set for the individuals
charged as suppliers.
During 1993 the 4th JDTF identified and charged numerous suspects
relating to inter -state drug trafficking operations. These numbers
have increased from previous years due in part to the availability
of illicit narcotics in our area. The main factor, however, is the
availability of trained officers devoted to narcotics
investigations. The availability of trained narcotics officers
would not be possible in this jurisdiction without federal grant
funding. Local law enforcement agencies involved supported our
efforts with additional officers on an as needed basis to complete
operations.
1994
In 1994 the Task Force, working with intelligence received during
a 1993 investigation of a methamphetamine bust and information from
a confidential informant, ran a search warrant in the southeast
part of Washington County which netted three arrests, the seizure
of $15,000 in currency, nine guns and other assets valuing $36,250.
The DEA and the IRS in Sioux City, Iowa City were also
investigating these suspects.
A second major investigation was a methamphetamine dealer located
in Fayetteville. It was established through confidential
informants that this individual was dealing several ounces of
methamphetamine per week. This investigation resulted in service
of search warrant which netted seizures $5,700 in U.S. Currency, 4
guns and other assets totaling $3,500. This individual was
prosecuted through the federal system and was sentenced to 30 years
in a federal prison.
A third investigation involved a marijuana distribution
organization, which targeted high school age buyers in west
Washington County. The information and undercover buys lead to a
search warrant being served and the arrest of four individuals and
the seizure of $4,000 U. S. Currency, three guns, and $3,250 in
other assets.
During 1994, the Task Force opened 292 cases with several being
tied to inter -state organizations. Approximately 2.5 ounces of
crack/cocaine was seized.
1995
DLEP FY '00
. • •
PROGRAM JUSTIFICATION/EVALUATION
During 1995 the Task Force worked several investigations which
involved interstate narcotic rings. The first major case involved
marijuana, which was being brought into Crawford County from Mexico
in brick form. The marijuana was then being brought to the
Fayetteville area and distributed. The investigation netted in
excess of 120 pounds of bricked marijuana and the arrest of six
suspects.
Another case was the direct result of information received from a
suspect following a traffic stop. A search warrant was obtained
and approximately five ounces of methamphetamine and over $16,000
in cash was seized. Three arrests were made.
Acting on information received from an anonymous caller, the Task
Force located an indoor growing operation, which reportedly
supplied processed marijuana to individuals in Iowa. At the time
the search warrant was served two arrests were made 193 mature
plants and approximately $4,900 was seized.
Another search warrant was executed based on narcotics charges and
netted the recovery of approximately $30,000 in stolen computers.
The merchandise was stolen from a single location in Springdale.
During the search warrant four arrests were made and one-half gram
of methamphetamine was seized.
In 1995 the Fourth DTF opened 388 cases and arrested 312 suspects.
Two hundred forty seven (247) suspects were convicted on drug
charges. These convictions resulted in approximately 417 years of
prison time and 303 years of probation.
1996
The 4th DTF added the ELM Springs Police Department to the Task
Force in 1996. This makes a total of eleven law enforcement
agencies providing information to the task force.
The task force officers worked several cases involving interstate
drug trafficking. The most prevalent drug being transported into
Northwest Arkansas has changed from marijuana to methamphetamine.
The drug quantities our confidential informants are able to
purchase have risen from grams and 1/8 ounce to ounces and pounds.
This trend clearly indicates more drugs are available in the area.
The largest methamphetamine suppliers arrested to date have been
Hispanic males. They transport the methamphetamine from
California, Texas and Mexico on a weekly basis. .The following
modes of transporting drugs into our area have been.
DLEP FY '00
• 1 •
PROGRAM JUSTIFICATION/EVALUATION
♦ AIRPLANE - Individuals carry it on their person or in carry on
luggage.
♦ BUSES - Packaged in their luggage.
♦ PERSONAL VEHICLES - Various compartments, hidden and
otherwise.
♦ U.S. MAIL AS WELL AS OTHER DELIVERY SERVICES.
Heroin is being reintroduced into the area. There were three
deaths attributed to heroin overdoses. The task force gained
information on the supplier and ran a search warrant and made an
arrest.
Methamphetamine is definitely being transported into the area
however; locals manufacture the substance as well. Three
methamphetamine labs have been seized this past year.
1997
During 1997 the task force was able to increase staffing by the
addition of an officer assigned from the University of Arkansas.
This has increased the amount of information received from the
officers at the University. Using this information and other
information collected several cases have been worked on and around
campus.
While working methamphetamine cases in the Hispanic community, the
Fourth Judicial District, the Nineteenth Judicial District, State
Police Narcotics and the DEA have pooled resources and shared
officers working in an undercover capacity to make cases in
Northwest Arkansas. These efforts resulted in the purchase or
seizure of over eight pounds and arrested sixteen individuals
capable of selling pounds of methamphetamine.
Another cooperative effort is interdiction. The Fourth Judicial
Task Force provides manpower when the DEA receives information
about suspicious packages or individuals coming to Fayetteville or
Springdale. Also agencies in Texas and California contact our task
force directly with information. The largest seizure was thirty-
five pounds of marijuana found in luggage at the airport.
Fayetteville Police Department assigned a full time K-9 team to the
task force for part of 1997.
The Task Force works closely with all law enforcement agencies in
the area including the DEA and State Police. The grant funds under
which the Task Force operates allows our agency to effectively
share manpower and information with other law enforcement agencies.

PROGRAM JUSTIFICATION/EVALUATION
This, in turn, reduces the amount of drug trafficking in our area
and subsequently reduces the amount of violence, which stems from
drug addiction.
1998
In the 1998 fiscal year, the Task Force saw a tremendous increase
in methamphetamine trafficking, manufacture and abuse. During this
fiscal year the Task Force purchased and seized approximately 19.41
pounds of methamphetamine. This amount is approximately 9.63 pounds
more than the Task Force dealt with in 1997. Approximately 16
pounds of the 19.41 pounds of methamphetamine purchased and seized
by the Task Force came from Hispanic suspects that have moved into
our area.
A joint investigation between the Task Force and the DEA
Fayetteville Resident Office yielded the largest single seizure of
methamphetamine in the Western District of Arkansas. Officers
seized 6.5 pounds of methamphetamine from a Hispanic subject flying
into the Fayetteville Airport from California.
The Task Force investigated several other cases involving large
amounts of cocaine and marijuana. The Task force purchased and
seized approximately 1.2 pounds of cocaine and approximately 66.3
pounds of marijuana in this fiscal year.
The largest seizure of LSD in the history of our Task Force came
during this grant year. Approximately 3000 hits of LSD were seized
during a search warrant and three suspects were arrested.
The 4th JDDTF ended the 1998 fiscal year opening 405 new cases and
seizing $91,481.33 in U.S, currency. Of these cases, 365 were
turned over for prosecution giving the Task Force a 90% clearance
rate for the year.
1999
The 4th JDDTF is continuing to work many major cases during the 1999
fiscal year. However, we do not have enough manpower assigned to
our Task Force to handle the explosive growth we have had in the
methamphetamine trade. We need additional investigators in the
Task Force so we can adequately investigate all drug cases. This
grant application includes three additional officers for a total of
seven investigators and one sergeant.
The sale of methamphetamine and prevalence of methamphetamine
laboratories continue to increase in our area. Our experience has
shown that mainly local people are responsible for most of our
methamphetamine laboratories. Conversely, we have found that it is

mainly Hispanic suspects(usually illegal aliens) who have been
responsible for transporting the large quantities of
methamphetamine to this area. The State Data System reports that
in 1990 the 4`h judicial district had a population of 1,526
Hispanics. In 1996 that number had risen 435% to a population of
8,164.
The Task Force manpower has not risen during this time period, in
fact it has decreased. In 1991, when the Task Force was formed, we
were working with 7 sworn officers. We are now working with 5 sworn
officers and have twice the case load, not even taking into account
the increased time we spend investigating methamphetamine labs. Of
the 5 sworn officers we have, 4 of them are DEA certified to work
methamphetamine labs and they have spent a great deal. of time this
year working on labs.
A joint investigation between the 4th DTF, 19`h DTF and the DEA
resulted in the seizure of approximately 5 pounds of
methamphetamine and 6 pounds of cocaine. The Hispanic suspects in
this case are being prosecuted in federal court.
During 1999, the 4th DTF made the largest single seizure of LSD
in the state of Arkansas by seizing 123,000 micrograms of LSD
from a suspect in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
Our DTF has purchased and seized approximately 20.09 pounds of
methamphetamine, approximately 7.4 pounds of cocaine, 62.53 pounds
of marijuana and seized $314,467 U.S. currency year to date in this
fiscal year. We have opened 263 cases in this grant year. This
number is down 31 cases from this point in our 1998 grant year.
Although the number of cases is a little down from 1998, it is
directly attributable to the increased number of methamphetamine
laboratories we have worked so far this fiscal year. The sixteen
labs we have worked thusfar this year are a 300% increase over the
entire year of 1998. A methamphetamine lab case requires around 10
times the man-hours a normal drug case takes to complete. Because
of the lab prevalence we are unable to allocate the needed time in
other areas such as working on street level dealers and following
up on narcotics intelligence.

FROM: Richard L. Watson, Chief of Police focI.
DATE: January 6, 2000
SUBJECT: Drug Law Enforcement Grant
I am asking you and the Council to approve the continued City matching funds for a
Federal grant that supports the local Drug Task Force. The main difference between this year's
request over last year's is that we are asking for an additional investigator to be funded through
this grant and the City would have to match 25% of those new costs. Below you will find further
details.
Attached is an application for the renewal of the Federal Drug Law Enforcement Grant
which supports the Fourth Judicial District Drug Task Force. This Task Force is comprised of
Fayetteville, Springdale, University of Arkansas, Johnson, Prairie Grove, Lincoln, Farmington,
West Fork, Greenland, Elm Springs and Elkins Police Departments, the Washington County
Sheriff's Department and the Fourth Judicial District Prosecutor. This grant request will
continue to support one sergeant, four officers, one secretary and 30% of a financial analyst, as
well as, increase staffing by three officers. This grant requests to add one additional officer from
the City of Fayetteville, one from the City of Springdale and one to be supported by the rural
agencies. The grant also includes funds for operations and maintenance, and covert operations.
Our application requests federal funding of $383,794 with a local matching requirement of
$127,931. If the grant is approved as requested, Fayetteville's share of the matching funds is
$63,338. The already approved 2000 budget included $46,000 of that amount. A budget
adjustment of $17,338 is also attached for your approval.
The Drug Task Force was formed in 1991 with the Fayetteville Police Department taking
the role of the lead agency (and Fayetteville continues to be the lead agency). The Task Force
has continued each year due to the support of this grant and all law enforcement agencies in the
area and is responsible for investigating drug related information and crimes within Washington
and Madison Counties.
The task force concept has been successful due to cooperation from all agencies involved.
The sharing of information and resources has enabled officers to better investigate narcotics
trafficking in Northwest Arkansas and avoid duplication of efforts. It is too great a financial
burden on any one agency to support an investigative unit of this nature and the task force
concept has proven its success.
